Rebirth 99 to become a car giant.

Chapter 982 Night of Glory
"Have you figured out the background of Yangcheng Nanshan Commercial Vehicle's shareholding change this time?"

"Why did Nanshan Automobile Group suddenly adjust its shares at this time?"

Zhu Zhengfeng was naturally very clear about how big an impact the matter Tao Wen mentioned would have.

However, before making any decision, he hoped that the people below him could clarify the situation to avoid any misunderstandings.

"We are still trying to understand the details, but they may not easily disclose this kind of thing to the media, so it is a bit difficult for us to find out."

"Unless we can directly ask the person in charge of this matter."

Tao Wen knew that the issue Zhu Zhengfeng was talking about was very crucial.

However, this kind of internal information involving the other party is not so easy to find out.

At least she herself has no confidence.

"I'll call Mr. Zhang from Yangcheng Automobile Group and see what he says."

Zhu Zhengfeng also knew that this kind of thing was not easy to find out, and the most important thing was that even if he found out, he wouldn’t know whether it was accurate.

It would be better to just call the person involved and ask him.

As general managers of large domestic companies, they knew each other before.

Although we can't say that we have a very good personal relationship, we don't have any personal conflicts either.

"Well, it would be best if we could confirm it directly with Mr. Zhang."

"But no matter what the reason is, we need to think ahead about how to deal with it if Nanshan Automobile Group proposes to adjust the shares of Nanshan Hongqi in the future."

"We now own 60% of the company, but the core technology is in the hands of Nanshan Automobile Group."

"If the relationship between the two parties becomes strained because of the shares, it will definitely affect the development of Nanshan Hongqi."

"Even Nanshan Automobile Group will turn to support the rapid development of other independent brand companies."

"I heard this morning that people from Xifeng Motor Group are going to have in-depth discussions with Nanshan Motor Group. Who knows, they will also adopt a similar cooperation plan as Nanshan Hongqi."

"Then, we will be in a very passive position."

Tao Wen knew what Zhu Zhengfeng valued most.

Therefore, various risks related to Nanshan Hongqi must be responded to in advance.

Otherwise, if something really happens, someone will have to step up and take the blame.

“It is difficult for us to have a good response to this matter.”

"It is impossible to give up the shares. Even if we want to give up, the space is very limited. At most, we will hold 515% and they will hold 49%."

"But I think this result is definitely not what Nanshan Automobile Group wants to see."

"It is very difficult for us to give up shares, but for Nanshan Automobile Group, what they want more is the management rights and profits of the enterprise."

“The apparent shares are not necessarily what they care about.”

"If we really discuss this topic, we can only communicate from the perspective of interests and see if we can make some concessions."

Zhu Zhengfeng actually sees things quite clearly.

What the other person cares about is what you care about, and each of you just needs to get what you care about.

Anyway, whether Nanshan Hongqi is managed by people from Chuncheng Automobile or Nanshan Automobile Group, Zhu Zhengfeng thinks this is negotiable.

Even transferring part of the profits to Nanshan Automobile Group through various means is not completely out of the question.

The only thing that cannot be negotiated is that the status of the major shareholder of Chuncheng Automobile Group cannot be changed.

"That's true. Let's first clarify the situation, and then prepare some targeted plans."

"If it is needed in the future, we can respond as quickly as possible."

After listening to Zhu Zhengfeng's words, Tao Wen felt more confident.

The boss has already thought of a solution, so things are simple.

The only thing I’m afraid of is that the boss hasn’t figured out what to do and keeps bothering her, which would be very frustrating.

……

As soon as Zhu Zhengfeng asked Yangcheng Automobile Group for information, Zhang Jiaqi told Cao Yang about the situation.

Zhang Jiaqi certainly doesn't want to give up such a good opportunity to get closer to Cao Yang.

After listening to Zhang Jiaqi's words, Cao Yang felt a little speechless.

The changes in the shares of Nanyang Yangcheng Commercial Vehicle were caused by Yangcheng Automobile Group itself.

Unexpectedly, the Chuncheng Automobile Group was scared.

"Mr. Cao, I think Mr. Zhu's call shows that they care very much about our attitude towards Nanshan Hongqi. There may be something we can do about it."

Mi Ying has been with Cao Yang as a secretary for so many years, and her skills in all aspects have been comprehensively improved.

"Spring City Automobile Group used to live a comfortable life mainly relying on Spring City Volkswagen and Spring City Toyota. However, in recent years, the situation of Volkswagen and Toyota has not been as good as expected."

"On the contrary, the Nanshan Hongqi that we cooperated with has emerged as a new force and performed very well in all aspects."

"Especially this year, Spring City Automobile Group tried its best and used a lot of connections to help Nanshan Hongqi enter the African market."

"In the first half of the year alone, Nanshan Hongqi's export sales reached 50,000 units, which is a very good figure."

"If the development continues, it is not impossible for the export sales to exceed 10 or even 20 units."

"In this way, Nanshan Hongqi's annual sales volume can reach 100 million vehicles, not to mention 120 million."

"Only when Chuncheng Automobile Group occupies the position of a major shareholder can many political achievements be regarded as the achievements of Chuncheng Automobile Group."

"That's why the other party is so sensitive."

Cao Yang is now slowly realizing what it means when a single move can affect the entire body.

The matter of Yangcheng Nanshan Commercial Vehicle had nothing to do with other companies such as Chuncheng Automobile Group.

However, because everyone has different ideas, the final results are completely different.

"Yes, so they will not give up their position as major shareholders. We can do something about this."

In Mi Ying's eyes, there is only the interests of Nanshan Automobile Group. Whether Chuncheng Automobile Group lives or dies has nothing to do with her.

"Let's wait and see about this matter. Don't rush to provoke Spring City Automotive Group."

“Sometimes if something is not finalized, it can have a greater impact.”

After Cao Yang said this, Mi Ying didn't worry about it anymore.

Anyway, the initiative in this matter lies with Nanshan Automobile Group.

……

"Mr. Cao, for our Honor Technology new product launch this time, we are going to cooperate with Nanshan Film and Television to hold a Honor Night event to maximize the topic."

While everyone's attention is still focused on Nanshan Automobile Group and Venusstar Technology, Honor Technology is also not idle.

Today's Honor Technology is a giant even in the world.

With annual sales of more than 100 million mobile phones, plus other electronic products, the turnover is no longer comparable to that of ordinary industrial enterprises.

This year, Honor Technology is also preparing to launch a new mobile phone product to break the pattern of the previous HONOR series and give consumers more choices.

In order to make this new Honor Technology phone a hit and let everyone know about it, Xia Qingqing has put in a lot of effort.

"We have basically invited all the famous Chinese female celebrities this time. Except for a few who really can't spare the time, all others will also attend."

“By then, this Glory Night event will be the most lively event in the entertainment and technology circles.”

Zhang Songwen also flew over in person and together with Xia Qingqing reported to Cao Yang the activity arrangements for the "Night of Glory".

After all, the female celebrities represented by Nanshan Film and Television will be the key link in this event.

In particular, this new product is a folding phone for female consumers, and it is also a folding phone that is not cheap.

This kind of product will be hard to sell without good marketing.

"We have a lot of products now, whether it's the new generation of HONOR mobile phones or computers and PADs, it's easy to distract people's attention."

“Should we focus on the foldable phone this time and use it as a promotional point? Other products can be directly launched on the mall later.”

Cao Yang did not choose the same promotional method as in previous years.

Since Honor Technology’s promotional focus this year is foldable phones, it is necessary to highlight the key points.

Otherwise, the publicity effect will be greatly reduced.

“This is also a method, but will it have a certain impact on the sales of several traditional products?”

Xia Qingqing was naturally aware of the benefits of Cao Yang's plan, but she was not without any worries.

After all, up to now, traditional products are the foundation of Honor Technology.

If there is a problem with the basic foundation, it will be a big problem.

"Not really. Other products have always been quite popular. As long as we communicate well with various media, it won't have much impact."

“Even this method of directly releasing it on the mall without holding any activities will become a new topic.”

Cao Yang is not too worried that Honor Technology's other products will suddenly become uncompetitive.

This kind of thing can't happen.

Especially when Samsung and Apple phones have nothing to do with the domestic market, other companies do not have the strength to bring such an impact to Honor Technology.

"If it is just to promote a foldable phone, then the promotional arrangements are indeed easier to make, and the promotional effect of this product should be able to reach an unprecedented level."

“It only takes a day or two for most young women to know about it.”

Zhang Songwen quickly expressed his support for the new plan proposed by Cao Yang.

We didn’t dare to think of adopting this plan before, but now that Cao Yang has proposed it himself, things are different.

"In terms of the promotional effect of foldable phones, it is definitely best to promote only one product."

"How about we just follow this plan first, and if the sales of other products later on aren't particularly good, we can arrange other activities?"

Xia Qingqing did not stick to her original opinion, but instead proposed a new compromise.

This can fully meet the needs of promoting foldable phones and avoid causing too much adverse impact on other products.

Cao Yang naturally had no objection to this.

Soon, Honor Technology began preparing according to this plan.

Nanshan Film and Television was naturally not idle either.

Zhang Songwen and Zhang Xin directly drew up a list and asked the company's staff to contact each one. Of course, in order to avoid making people feel a little cheap, not everyone is eligible to be invited.

The list they drew up only included 100 people, and these people were invited to participate.

Among these 100 people, more than half are Nanshan Film and Television’s own female stars and artists.

There are actually not as many places left for outsiders as people imagine.

This creates a scarcity of places.

"Mile, you are also going to Qiongzhou to participate in the Glory Night event next week, right?"

Early in the morning, Charlene secretly found Mile to confirm the situation.

After Nanshan Film and Television officially sent out the invitation letter yesterday, this news has spread in the industry.

Some brokerage companies even contacted Nanshan Film and Television specifically just to get an invitation letter.

You should know that Nanshan Film and Television invited various celebrities to participate in the event this time. Apart from helping to book air tickets and hotels and arranging personnel to pick them up at the airport, there were no other appearance fees.

It means that everyone comes to participate in this event without paying any money.

Of course, Honor Technology will definitely give everyone a folding phone and some other gifts.

For ordinary journalists, this travel expense is already very generous.

But for celebrities, this is obviously nothing.

But even in this situation, there are still many stars who very much want to participate in this event.

To a certain extent, this event has set a level for domestic female celebrities.

The commercial value of any female celebrity who does not receive an invitation will drop by one level.

Even female celebrities who basically do not receive any invitation letters will be considered by businesses as third-tier or even non-third-tier figures.

This is very fatal.

"Received. I heard that most of the female artists in the company have received it, but many people outside the company are not eligible."

"Charlene, I think after this incident, artists from other companies will be more eager to switch to this company."

"After all, Nanshan-affiliated companies have too much influence in the Chinese business community, and no one would offend Nanshan-affiliated companies."

"So once a female star is banned by a Nanshan-affiliated company, it is basically equivalent to being banned by the industry."

"After joining Nanshan Film and Television, all these risks disappeared."

After Mile said this, Xia Lin couldn't help but nodded.

This is indeed the truth.

But this is not a good thing for them.

Because this means that competition will become more intense in the future.

"Let's first think about how to cooperate with the company to make the Glory Night event a success."

"When the time comes, Nanshan-affiliated companies will go all out, and this event will definitely become the most watched event on the entire Internet."

"If we do it well, our popularity might even be able to rise to a higher level."

Since the two people's routes are not exactly the same, the competitive relationship between them is not very strong.

So the relationship between Mile and Charlene has always been good.

After all, there is not much conflict of interest. Instead, there are some common interests that need to be maintained. This relationship can naturally continue to improve.

……

"Editor-in-Chief Wu, the 'Glory Night' event held by Glory Technology this time seems to be very grand. Almost all the female stars in the entertainment industry have been invited."

"I heard that because of this reason, many young men from wealthy families have gone to Qiongzhou, hoping to see something happen."

While waiting for the flight at the Capital Airport, Xie Min, editor of Zhongguancun Online, discussed the business trip with editor-in-chief Wu Xuebin.

For them, traveling on business every week is a common occurrence.

However, there are huge differences between activities.

When you attend other companies’ new product launches, there is often only one main star, but Honor Technology has emptied out the entertainment industry.

It is estimated that in the whole of China, only Honor Technology, or only Nanshan-affiliated companies, have such influence.

There is no way around it, because they not only have the giant Nanshan Film and Television in the film and television industry, but are also invincible in the business circle.

Especially for a military-industrial complex like Venustech, its influence is no longer comparable to that of ordinary companies.

Didn’t you see that no matter how hard the United States tried, it couldn’t bring down Venus Technologies?

"For so many years, Honor Technology has only had the HONOR series of mobile phones and has never launched other series. Only Apple in the United States does this."

'No other mobile phone company has done this.'

“While this has some particular benefits, there are certainly drawbacks as well.”

"This time, Honor Technology should be making a brand new attempt. Maybe in the future, Honor Technology's mobile phone products will become more and more like Samsung."

"Besides, the phone they're launching this time is said to be a foldable phone, which girls should like more."

"And girls happen to be the group with the greatest spending power."

"It's normal for Honor Technology to pay more attention to it."

Wu Xuebin is full of expectations for this trip to Qiongzhou.

He also wanted to know what different products Honor Technology would come up with.

With such a big fanfare, if the product is mediocre, it would easily be backlashed by public opinion.

"That's true. Now, with just one series of products, Honor's global sales of mobile phones have reached more than 100 million units."

"If the new foldable phone can contribute tens of millions of units in sales every year, then the global sales of Honor phones may exceed 2 million units in the future."

"That's really exaggerated."

It can be said that Xie Min has witnessed the growth and development of Honor Technology step by step.

The more this happened, the more she could feel the power of Glory Technology.

This is a truly high-tech enterprise that is going global and making money from all over the world.

Their products have a very high premium and they don’t engage in price wars, but their sales volume still continues to increase year after year.

There is no other company in the whole of China that can be compared with Honor Technology.

……

Before the event officially started, Glory Night had already topped the trending searches on many websites.

Various female celebrities also posted their invitation letters and expressed their expectations for Honor Technology's new products.

This made things even more heated.

After all, famous female stars have a lot of fans. When hundreds of female stars attend an event, their fans basically cover all potential users.

"Boss Cao, there are so many female celebrities attending the event, but you are not going. I guess those people will be very disappointed."

This time, Cao Yang completely handed over the responsibility of the activity to Xia Qingqing.

Although Honor Technology is very large, its development in all aspects has been put on the right track, and there are not many occasions where Cao Yang needs to intervene directly.

On the other hand, at Venustech, many projects require Cao Yang's personal participation in order to speed up development.

Otherwise, it would be impossible for Venustech to come up with big projects every now and then.

"You're talking as if I can do anything if I go there."

Cao Yang rolled his eyes.

He really has no interest in those female stars.

If you want to find someone, look for an amateur.

Anyway, he doesn't need the bonus of a star to achieve his sense of accomplishment.

"That's not necessarily true. You are like Tang Monk's meat to them now. They rarely have the chance to interact with you. They definitely don't want to miss such a good opportunity as the Night of Glory."

Mi Ying and Cao Yang have a special relationship, so they can talk more casually in private.

Even joking around is a very common thing.

This is also an important reason why she can have great influence in Nanshan-based companies.

Whether it was because of her own personal ability or because of her bullying, no one dared to give Mi Ying a hard time.

All business units are very actively cooperating with the general manager's office.

Even if there are some difficulties, they will communicate with Mi Ying first before reporting to Cao Yang.

"After the foldable phone was released, I am looking forward to how Samsung and Apple will respond."

"In the global female market, foldable phones should still have great prospects."

"Especially Honor Technology designed it to be very beautiful and luxurious."

Cao Yang didn't want to discuss the topic of "Tang Monk's Flesh" with Mi Ying, so after a few words, he changed the topic to business.

Although we don’t expect foldable phones to sell better than the HONOR series, there is still an expectation of tens of millions of units sold every year.

This goal is definitely not low.

After all, no model of foldable phones is priced below 5000 yuan.

Even though the income of Chinese people has increased a lot, a mobile phone that costs 5000 yuan is not considered cheap.

Even many women still earn less than 5000 yuan a month.

"There are all kinds of discussions about the Night of Glory on the internet right now. It's not easy for this phone to fail even if it wants to."

"What we need to worry about is whether the distribution speed is fast enough at the beginning, so that flagship stores don't run out of phones to sell."

Mi Ying has experienced the foldable phone herself, so she is naturally very confident about it.

Although in terms of performance, there is no essential difference between foldable phones and HONOR series products.

However, when women buy things, they often don’t look at performance, but rather at appearance, the popularity of the product, and the sense of face the product brings to them.

If we really talk about performance, are LV bags much better than other bags?

"You're right. Folding phones have come this far, and it depends on how good they turn out!"
